The problem is your 6200. If your motherboard supports it, try setting 
the AGP bus to 4x instead
of 8x. I have an 8x motherboard that exhibits the same problem, but the 
same card works fine in
a 4x slot. Nvidia is apparently still working on AGP + XvMC support for 
these cards. Pre 8756 drivers
didn't work with AGP + XvMC at all on this card. You had to use NvAGP 
"1", which basically disables
AGP if you're using agpgart.

Let us know if that helps.
Thanks!
